Parenting reminder: Our kids remember us for who we ARE, not what we say or try to teach. Being WITH is the most important thing you can do as a parent. It's hard work and it's hard to keep going when you feel alone. We have monthly parent support groups alternating between Virtual and In-Person to help hold you up when the days feel long. You can register at our Eventbrite Page - https://c2adopt.eventbrite.com

The return to routine is hard on everyone after an extended break. Reminder that being 'off' in following previously established routines and having BIG feelings is normal for all of us (adults and kids!). We can support ourselves and our kids through building in extra time for routines and tasks, saying "I'm sorry" and role modeling accountability A LOT, and getting good sleep!
Cheers to a kind and healthy 2026 for us all!

Sometimes a lot of connection is too much for our children, by titrating our connection we can supply just enough to keep them feeling safe and non-threatened.

The holidays can be a challenge for children and youth who have experienced the loss and separation from their birth/first parents. If you do only one thing - CENTER your child. Pay attention to their needs and capacity. This may mean that the family gatherings or traditions in your family have to take a backseat this year or that you can't make it to multiple places in a short window of time. Slow down. Focus on being with your child. Focus on keeping communication open. Be kind to yourself and to them. We are here to support you! Reach out for the care and expertise of folks who get it!

It's been a nutty couple of weeks huh? A lack of routine often leads to overwhelm for our bodies. Humans thrive on predictable, patterned rhythms. When we have days off for holidays and extra activities, surprise snow days and last minute changes in plans - we FEEL that deeply. For our kids that may look more like defiance and anger or withdrawal and shutdown. As adults, we can help by working to keep routines where and how we can - to signal safety to our bodies - and help soothe stressed nervous systems. Take a deep breath - you can do this!
